Product Description
Iris is a sweet little shrug knit in the stunning Samite from Blacker Yarns. As soon as I received the skeins, I knew that I wanted to make a lightwear sweater that would be a perfect piece for the Fall and Spring. Light as a feather yet so warm and cosy. Wear it on top of a single tee with a pair of skinny jeans, or on top of a dress, maybe a little scarf or a cowl, and you’re ready for a new season!
Construction-wise I wanted to revisit the technique that I have used on the Myst shawl: Iris is knit flat, starting with a provionnal cast on. It is knit sideways then a three needle bind off is used to create the opening for the sleeves and a few rows are knit in the round for the cuffs. Stitches are then picked up to create the hem. And voilà!
The lace might look intimidating but it’s actually a very simple and meditative stitch to work on.
